Preparation
Simmer the soup until the veggies are tender. Puree in blender or food processor until smooth. Add salt/pepper to taste.
Sally's notes: Instead of stock of bouillon cubes, you can take out 1/2c soup after pureeing and dissolve a T of miso in it, then return it to the pot and mix. Almost all the combos are good with the addition of 1/2 an onion and a clove or two of garlic sauteed in sherry. Other possible additions (not combined of course) include: 1T tomato paste, 1/2c leftover beans or grains, a few dried mushrooms or dried tomatoes, a few tablespoons of sauerkraut, a T of capers or chopped pickle added before serving, toasted pumpkin/squash seeds or wheat germ sprinkled on top.

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
In deciding on a meal plan, it is important to attempt to moderate your consumption of fats, refined carbohydrate and salt.
The problems associated with reduced carb diets
Its extremely popular, but it is truly safe and healthy for you?
Cutting out carbohydrates might mean missing out on necessary nutrients from healthy foods which must be part of any well adjusted diet, particularly those obtained from fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
Remember, one fact that is frequently overlooked, it is damned hard (though certainly not impossible) for vegetarians to take up a low carb diet.
Lycopene super foods
(includes apricot, papaya & baby jackfruit)
The phytochemical lycopene is a non-synthetic compound used to color foods and member of the same group of phytochemicals as carotene. This chemical is accountable for the deep red colour of quite a few natural foods.
Fortunately, unlike numerous nutrients, it does not become less effective if cooked but is genuinely improved by the cooking process.
.
Its most valuable health contribution is that it works as an antioxidant and appears to help lower the risks of cancer.
Lycopene is the most powerful carotenoid quencher of singlet oxygen, which is correlated with aging of the skin. It's also believed to curtail the development of diseases affecting arterial blood vessels.
